“…According to Srivastava et al [21], "a waste management programme that ignores the social aspects is doomed to failure". A number of studies appeared during the past two decades where scholars identified and explained the socio-psychological and situational factors influencing households' recycling behaviours [22].…”

India is currently facing a mounting challenge related to municipal waste management, due to an increasing urban population, and their high consumption lifestyles. India also has the world's highest number of young people in the 10-24 years age group. The study applied the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) model to predict school students' recycling intentions in Delhi, the capital of India and one of the highest producers of municipal solid wastes in the country. Data were collected from a school in New Delhi and the sample size consisted of 272 students from 9th and 10th grades. The TPB model explained 56% of the variance in the students' intentions to recycling. The predictor 'subjective norm' appeared to have the strongest impact on the students' recycling intentions, followed by 'attitude' and 'perceived behavioural control'. It indicated that social factors are driving the Indian youth's recycling intentions. It is important that the policymakers promote recycling as a social trend in India and provide adequate facilities to the public so that they can participate in recycling activities without facing difficulties. Schools also have a role in increasing students' awareness of recycling and motivating them to participate in household waste management practices.

“…Generally, members of the planning committee felt that the comments made by clinicians during the SWOT were taken into account in the development of the new model. However, as suggested by the committee members and by the literature [16], strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of a programme evolve over time. Following up on SWOT would thus be very useful and could be well suited for programme evaluation once the new PRP model is fully implemented.…”

“…It was originally developed for change management in business planning, but it is an easy tool that can adapted for use in many different situations [13][14][15]. SWOT analysis has been used in the medical field for programme development and strategic planning, for documenting service organization, to improve models of care and to assess the readiness for implementing new models of care [12,13,[15][16][17][18]]. An analysis can be completed solely by a programme manager but, when employed with multiple stakeholders, a SWOT analysis is well suited for participatory evaluation because it is based on actors' perceptions and can contribute to participants' awareness and empowerment, facilitating the development of commonly shared organizational goals [19].…”

“…Through recommendations made by international literature [36][37][38][39][40] we decided to use the SWOT analysis as an important base to think strategically about developing the A. arguta production chain in Piedmont. Analogously to Demont and Rutsaert (2017) [41] when elaborating the SWOT matrix, the favourable and unfavourable aspects were established regarding the development of A. arguta in the area, while distinguishing the internal (strengths, weaknesses) and external (opportunities threats) variables.…”

Integrated Methodologies (SWOT, TOWS, LCA) for Improving Production Chains and Environmental Sustainability of Kiwifruit and Baby Kiwi in Italy

et al. 2017

Abstract:Italy's kiwifruit growers are considered to be world-leading players of the past 20 years. However, with this success come its challenges. In the last five years, a bacterial canker of kiwifruit known as Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) has caused a dramatic reduction in the size of the areas cultivated, leading to several experienced Piedmontese Actinidia deliciosa growers beginning to cultivate the A. arguta. To better understand the potential for replacing the common kiwifruit in Italy's Piedmont region with plantations of A. arguta and to attain a systematic approach and support for decision situations; we assessed the environmental impact of the two production chains (field and storage) from a technical-operational perspective. The assessment was conducted through interviews with producers, field and warehouse technicians and sales managers in order to reveal the strengths and weaknesses of the two systems. The work presented below considers the application of the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method for the field system (two different phases of the plantation) and the SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis for the entire supply chain (field and warehouse management). Finally, a TOWS analysis (Threats, Opportunities, Weakness, Strengths) integrated the results of both LCA and SWOT analyses and permitted to highlight the development strategies for A. arguta in Piedmont. The total orchard cycle for A. arguta presents an impact of 0.14 kg CO 2 eq (GWP) and for A. deliciosa an impact of 0.11 kg CO 2 eq (GWP). Based on the synthesis of results from our TOWS analysis, we identified the following development strategies to help to shape the future A. arguta supply chain in Piedmont: Large-scale oriented; Berry fruits oriented; Export and organic oriented and Niche oriented.
